ok, so i saw this bag online and though i liked it, i didn't realize how gorgeous it would be in real life!!

it arrived this week and i've been using it every day since!! i thought the grey would be too light but it's not. it's more of a putty or cement grey so it will stay cleaner. i tried to capture the actual color here. i tried to attach a bigger photo but it wouldn't let me? hmm...anyway, what do you gals think?

It's beautiful, love the color and the shoulder strap, congrats!

modelina · Sep 6th, 2009, 06:19 PM

Thanks, I REALLY love it! And it's super lightweight even with all of my stuff in it. I wanted to add a bigger photo, but when I did, it said the file was too big. Does anyone know how to do that? Seems like people can add these huge photos onto the page itself. Sorry, I'm sure this isn't the place to ask. HAHA.

Very pretty, congrats! Love the colour, glad to hear that it's not as light as in the pictures!

That's a terrific neutral. It will go with almost everything. Congrats on your lovely purchase!

Aww...thanks gals for the feedback!!

Here are some photos I found of Michelle Trachtenberg wearing it as a hobo. I like wearing it both ways.

Great bag, I love the color! I 'm thinking of getting one in black cause I don't take care of my bags.

great bag, I looked everywhere to get this one and finally found one, I think Ash is pretty much sold out everywhere and I can see why!
